Font Size

Posted on by

Hello,

We have the latest version of GP along with GP power tools.

Can we increase the font size within GP using GP or GP power tools functionality?

    Use Run as Administrator to start GP so you have write permissions to registry and application folder.

    awesome and would you happen to know why I am receiving this message when I open the DEX.INI settings?

    Foler (folder path) does not exist or does not have the write permissions enabled

    It is not possible to actually change font size.

    What we are doing is ensuring GP honours the DPI setting in windows by scaling the application.

    Once the changes are in place they should work for terminal server sessions.

    Hi David,

    Thank you for your prompt response, so if we are on a terminal server I can change the font size within GP on a per-user case? or the changes will apply to all users that is on the terminal server

    You can check that the Bitmap Scaling options on the last tab of the Dex.ini Settings window are enabled. They should be enabled automatically if you have installed build 29 of GP Power Tools.

    Then you can change the DPI scaling percentage of the display using windows and GP will scale accordingly.

    Regards

    David
